CCSAP is a series of continuing education activities that cover the latest information on a specific therapeutic area. Topics are drawn from the BPS content outline for the BCCCP certification examination, then the latest medical literature is reviewed for evidence-based updates to improve patient outcomes.

Pharmacists can use CCSAP to develop and assess their knowledge in the science and application of pharmacotherapy. This information can be integrated into structured training programs or assist advanced-level practitioners in maintaining their clinical competence.

Leading the new edition are Series Editor Bradley A. Boucher, Pharm.D., FCCP, BCPS, MCCM, Associate Dean for Institutional Initiatives and Operations, College of Pharmacy, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, Tennessee; and Series Editor Curtis E. Haas, Pharm.D., FCCP, BCPS, Director of Pharmacy, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, New York.

Each CCSAP release is an online book made up of peer-reviewed chapters that update a specific therapeutic area. To help integrate this information into practice, chapters include the following, where appropriate:

In-text references to the latest research

Graphics that directly relate information to clinical practice

Full-color photographs, illustrations, and audio and video files

Hyperlinks to assessment tools, patient resources, and the latest guidelines

Algorithms and Practice Points (the take-home messages)

Learner self-assessment is by high-level, case-based, multiple-choice questions that test application of the material to real-world practice scenarios. Explained answers are a vital component of the learning process and include a detailed rationale for each self-assessment question with hyperlinks to citations that support optimal decision-making. For more on ACPE and BCCCP credit from CCSAP, see below.

The principal CCSAP release is an online book, provided as an interactive PDF that can be saved to the desktop or printed. The latest version of Adobe Reader (available free) offers functionality such as highlighting or adding “sticky notes” to the text. Intra-document and external links connect you immediately to the information you want and need. As each book is released, the online book is automatically added to your “My Account” page on the ACCP Web site. A required posttest must be submitted within 4 months of the release date to be eligible for BCCCP recertification credit.

In addition, the e-media version of CCSAP is included with any purchase. Perfect for “anywhere, anytime” access, the eBook allows CCSAP information to be viewed on an e-reader, tablet, iOS or Android smart phone.

Three CCSAP books are released each year; release dates are in January, May, and September. To be eligible for BCCCP recertification credit, the required posttest must be submitted within 4 months of each book’s release.

Continuing Pharmacy Education Credit

The American College of Clinical Pharmacy is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) as a provider of continuing pharmacy education. The number of continuing pharmacy education contact hours earned for successfully completing a posttest varies with each CCSAP module. The ACPE-approved continuing pharmacy education credit associated with each CCSAP module is available for 3 years after the date of release. All CCSAP releases are application-based activities.

BCCCP Recertification Credit

Subscribers seeking board certified pharmacotherapy specialist (BCCCP) recertification credit from a CCSAP module must submit the required posttest within 4 months after the book’s release. Recertification credits earned from a passing score on an CCSAP module are forwarded to BPS. For statements of credit, visit www.mycpemonitor.net.
